Pink Floyd's "In the Flesh" (song, clip from the movie) as RNC 04
Not referring to the opening track of "The Wall" but the version of "In the Flesh" that comes in the second half of "The Wall".

The movie "The Wall" that accompanies this song is even more dramatic. It has imagery that brings to mind the RNC in NY in 2004.

The next song in the movie, "Run Like Hell" has images of the Ashcroft/Gonzalez justice department enforcing their vision.

Finally, the next song in the movie, "Waiting for the Worms", has imagery that will resemble the Bush Coronation on January 20.

If you get the DVD, these three songs are tracks 22,23,24.

In the Flesh (pt2)

Are there any queers in the theater tonight?
Get them up against the wall!
There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right to me,
Get him up against the wall!
That one looks Jewish!
And that one's a coon!
Who let all of this riff-raff into the room?
There's one smoking a joint,
And another with spots!
If I had my way,
I'd have all of you shot!

*favorite freeper saying.

This sequence from "The Wall" really drives home the jack-boot Facisism of Bush and the Reich Wing.

1. Someone should work this up for Move On or something.
God knows Roger will allow the use of the lyrics.

He hates Bush as much as anyone.
